Dim

I expect less than outdoor lighting in a story about dwarves and their treasure inside a mountain, yet we do not see “dim” after Chapter 13.  Fascinating!

  • 01.068 in the dim light it made him look strange
  • 01.082 and caverns dim
  • 03.010 and the light became very dim,
  • 04.005 with a dreadful fall into a dim valley at one side of them.
  • 05.005 and dim before his eyes.
  • 07.045 They passed through this dim hall,
  • 07.126 in the dim shadows of that place
  • 08.002 As their eyes became used to the dimness
  • 08.032 when they became aware of the dim blowing of horns
  • 08.076 There was the usual dim grey light
  • 09.053 Where the forest wide and dim
  • 09.061 There was a dim sheet of water no longer overshadowed,
  • 12.012 It is almost dark so that its vastness can only be dimly guessed,
  • 12.014 could dimly be seen coats of mail,
  • 12.020 he had caught the dim echoes of a knocking sound
  • 13.023 and of the dim beginnings of wide stairs
  • 13.044 Before them light came dimly through great doors,
